How to Create a Roadmap

Turn ideas from your mindmap into a structured roadmap.

1. Create from the Dashboard

Click "New Roadmap" in the left sidebar. Give it a name and your roadmap opens straight away.

2. Open the Mindmap

Switch to Mindmap view using the toggle in the toolbar. This is where ideas start.

Double-click anywhere on the canvas to create a new node. Add as many idea nodes as you like - nest them as sub-ideas by dragging onto a parent node.

3. Add Nodes to the Roadmap

When an idea is ready to become a roadmap item, right-click the node and choose "Add to Roadmap". The node is now linked to a roadmap item and will appear in the Roadmap view.

You can also use "Add as sub-item" to nest it under an existing roadmap item.

4. Set a Status

Every item has a status you can update at any time.

StatusMeaning
PlannedNot started yet
In ProgressActively being worked on
DoneCompleted
CancelledNo longer planned

5. Set a Priority

Priorities run from 1 (lowest) to 5 (highest).

Low1-2

6. Switch to Roadmap View

Use the toolbar toggle to switch to Roadmap view. Your promoted nodes appear as structured blocks with timelines, statuses, and sub-items.

The Roadmap view is a block-based builder - add headings, timelines, progress rings, and more to compose your public page. See Roadmap Builder for a full breakdown of available blocks.

Upgrading to Pro unlocks unlimited portals, custom branding, and embeds. Roadmaps are unlimited on all plans.
